Bird House Blues

A bird house attracts the beautiful and divine. Who offer the soul both a charm and a chime. Blessing hearts with palette and song. Along come the rippers and nibblers. Gleaners of peace they're born to be. Leaving the heart to hobbled dream. In skies of robin egg quiet. Now blistering in twisting silence. Battling the harshest of seasons. Amidst winter acorns and peace thieves. Bird houses filled with dead and dying things.

The abandoned bird house, once positively possessed and glowing, left abandoned and bereft. There is a lot of emotion in this write as a metaphor for lonely people. It also works as a realistic view feeling when sighting a deserted bird house. I truly, truly enjoyed reading it ... CayCay
